Answer:

20ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length = L

Let the width = W

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2L + 2W

Translating the word problem into an algebraic equation, we have;

L = 5W .......equation 1

2L + 2W = 24 ........equation 2

To find the width

Substituting equation 1 into equation 2, we have;

2(5W) + 2W = 24

10W + 2W = 24

12W = 24

W = 24/12

Width, W = 2 ft

To find the length;

Substituting the value of "W" into equation 1, we have;

L = 5W

L = 5*2

L = 10 ft

To find the area of the rectangle;

Area = LW

Area = 10*2

<em>Area = 20 ft²</em>

Therefore, the deck's area is 20 feet square.

Answer:

The possible solutions are 58 degree, 122 degrees, 302 degrees and 238 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Please see the attachment

From the figure, it is evident that

cos AOB = OB/OA = 53/100 = 0.53

Thus, cos-1 (0.53) = 58 degrees

AOB = 58 degree

Also, there are can be other values depending on the quadrants

COB = 180 -58 = 122 degrees

FOB = 360 -58 = 302 degrees

EOB = 180 + 58 = 238 degrees

Can someone complete the square
pshichka [43]
To do these, start by looking at the "b" value -6.
divide it by 2

-6/2 = -3

now square this number

(-3)^2 = 9

this is what you need for the "c" value

there is only a 5 for the c value so add 4 to both sides of the equation. ( +4 = +4)

y +4 = x^2 -6x +5 +4
y +4 = x^2 -6x +9
y +4 = (x -3)^2
y = (x -3)^2 - 4

vertex ( 3, -4) upwards facing like a bowl, because the "a" value is positive. So the vertex is the minimum, lowest point on the graph.
